Termite Letters or Termite Inspections are greatly appreciated, and even
required / expected in the purchase of any real estate. And it doesn’t
need to be a big headache for you, the buyer, the seller or realtor!
Any time you make a big decision in life, being purchasing or selling
property, you want to make sure you are covered and secure in your decision.
Why would you want a home, or business, that is riddled with termites?

Every residential home for sale in East Tennessee had a termite letter
issued at the time of closing. This letter is good for 90 days from the
date of the inspection. If there were no termite problems at the time
of closing, you should have your home checked at least once per year.
Most Pest Control companies offer this as a service and
Preferred Pest Termite & Turf is no different. They are even
supra key approved so the inspection is so easy you won’t have to worry about
showing up and taking time out of yours or your realtor’s already
busy schedule.
If your home was treated prior to your purchasing your home, you should
contact the
Preferred Pest Termite & Turf and ask about the annual coverage, easy for the home owners, and really
giving you piece of mind that your life long investment for yourself and
family will be safe.

What most people don’t realize is that in Tennessee, it’s not
if you’ll get termites, it’s a matter of when. Homes between
4 and 12 years old are most at risk. Make sure to have your home checked annually.
